Ellesmere Port Collective CIC is a community-led organisation dedicated to bringing people together through culture, creativity, and shared spaces in Ellesmere Port and the surrounding areas.
We exist to support local creatives, small businesses, and communities by creating opportunities for collaboration, expression, and growth. Whether it’s through events, markets, workshops, or cultural programming, our goal is simple: to make Ellesmere Port a more vibrant, connected, and inspiring place to live and work.

We develop and support community-focused projects that encourage participation and celebrate local talent. Our work often includes:
- Creative and cultural events
- Pop-up markets and trading spaces
- Community workshops and skill sharing
- Collaborative projects with local artists and organisations
- Activating underused spaces for public benefit
Our Mission
Our mission is to strengthen community identity and opportunity in Ellesmere Port by supporting grassroots creativity and inclusive cultural activity. We believe that when local people are given space, resources, and support, they create incredible things.
Our Values
- Community first – everything we do is shaped by local needs and voices
- Accessibility – culture and creativity should be open to everyone
- Collaboration – we achieve more when we work together
